And I seriously swear I had no affinity with numbers.

When I was in Kindergarten 1..

ME(CHRISTINE): Rina! Stay over leh, I want you stay over this weekend, pleassseee? ):
RINA: Huh? Er.. I scared my mother don't allow.

Actual reason for not wanting to stay over's because she's afraid of my Mom. Lol.

M: I help you call your mom to ask!
R: Er, I think she's not in her office. She's gone to her customer's office!
(She's cooking up stories because how on earth would she have known where her mom was when she wasn't in contact with her at that point of time? Sadly, I wasnt smart enough to notice)
M: Then do you know her customer's office number?
R: (Yaya-Papaya la, don't want to admit she doesn't know) I know! Of course I know.
M: Okay! (goes to take pen and paper) What's the number?
R: (Stumped because she has no freaking idea what the number was) Er, 2..5..6..3................5!

By then I've already had 20 odd 30 numbers on my paper and the paper was filled up with many many numbers, and I stupidly punched in 20 odd numbers, and obviously I could not get through..

A few years later, when I was in Primary 2 and Rina has already moved back to live with her parents..

R: Why's Christine calling me? o.O
C: RINA! GUESS WHAT? I JUST FOUND OUT THAT PHONE NUMBERS ONLY CONSIST OF 7 NUMBERS!
R: Wth? You're already Primary 2 leh! I knew that when I was in K1 or K2 la!

I said I've no affinity with numbers.

I swear my Mom's going bonkus. She's just upstarirs and she's sent two (lame) jokes to Nigel and me, she's got like, too much money, and I think she's hinting something. One joke goes like this..

When you are lonely, don't be afraid, because you can turn to me.
When you are sad, don't be afraid, because you can turn to me.
When you are bored, don't be afriad, because you can turn to me.
When you are short on cash..
The suscriber is currently unavailable, please try again later.

Lol, and most of the time, I'd only turn to her when the bolded sentence above is taking place. Hahahha, I'm sure she's trying to mean it but she can't. Lol. Actually I'd talk to her about waht happened in the day. But I only tell her the good stuffs, I seldom tell her about quarrels and stuffs between friends or anything. But I do gossip with her, we actually bitch together late at night. Bah. Nigel and me both agreed she's getting lamer by the day.

She was on her way to fetch Nigel and me from Yishun just now, when she (don't know how, but not suprising) turned to Yio Chu Kang instead and was stuck. She called me and I told her to ask around and her reply? "Huh, deserted area. Heehee. Nobody."

And she told me, "I tell you what la, I try to just turn anywhere and if I really manage to turn out of this place and find my way, then I'll just turn home first and you can take the taxi back with Nigel".

I swear that's my Mom.

New song! (:

.

Today was the worst day
I went through hell
I wish I could remove it from my mind

Two months away from you
But I couldn't tell
I thought that everything was gonna be just fine

The post card that you wrote
with the stupid little note
Something wasn't quite right about it

It smelt like cheap perfume

And it didn't smell like you
There is no way you can get around it
Because you wrote

I wish you were her
You left out the e
You left without me
and now you're somewhere out there
with that bitch slut psycho babe
I hate you
why are guys so lame
Everything I gave you

I want everything back but you

You first tried to tell me
all along
that you weren't the right one for me

My friends tried to tell me
to be strong
I bet you didn't think that I would see

The post card that you wrote
with the stupid little note
but something wasn't quite right about it
I'd want to see you cry
like I did a thousand times

Now you're losing me

you're losing me now
Because you wrote

I wish you were her
You left out the e
You left without me
and now you're somewhere out there
with that bitch slut psycho babe
I hate you
why are guys so lame
Everything I gave you

I want everything back but you

Joyna Chua! The only reason why this post exist is because you requested for a post and you're my best best friend cum butt. Bah. Lol.

This will be a freaking loong post cause I've got so much to say. I wanna blog about how much fun I had at Sherrie's housewarming last Saturday and I shall first start off by posting a short conversation between Mommy and me myself. In like, more than 10 years back. Which I was reminded of when Rina, my cousin told me this yesterday. I swear I was really not born to count. Maths is just not my subject, then.

Let C be me, M be Mommy and R shall stand for Rina. And the conversation goes like this.

Mommy gives me two notes. A five dollar note, and a ten dollar note. (she really gave it to me :D)

M: Okay, Christine. Now, tell me, if I were to add 10 and 5 dollars together, what would I get?
C: Er.. Fifty-Ten dollars?

Note: At the point of time Rina was really good with numbers. So she began laughing like a Hyena when she heard my response.

Bah. At least I know theres this number Fifteen now.

.

Saturday was faaaabulous. I had so much fun I have not had for such a long time ever sine I was promoted to Secondary 4. Being a seconadry 4 student, I've been mugging my ass off literally and had little time to play. Its been really stressful. Anyways..

Vanessa, Lydia, Joash, Yaozhong and me met at Changi Airport to get Sherrie a housewarming gift. We figured we really couldnt turn up empty handed. And why Changi Airport? Cause someone with the name of Vanessa absent mindedly remembered there was a Candy Empire at Changi Airport. And its funny, because there is no Candy Empire there. Lol. And she was so sure there was. Bah, I still love Vanessa la. Lol. We ended up buying Sherrie a blackforest cake from Swensens and a Happy Feet Cutlery set (for kids) from Swensens as well. We then took the MRT to Tenah Merah to wait for Sherrie to pick us up from there. Yao initially wanted us to pop by the pasamalam at White Sands to get a Power Ranger mask each to accompany him because he had bought a green ranger mask to go for the party since the team was Superheros. But we decided to give that a miss at last. Bah. The result of being a smart alec and not telling us you had prepared a superhero mask. Lol.

Yao then wore his power ranger mask in the MRT station when we were going to meet Sherrie. We were all hoping he'd be like, caught by the authorities for suspecting terrorism or something. But he got away without getting caught. And he was acting like he really was power ranger, he did some ridiculous moves on the way out. And he managed to turn many heads with the mask. Lol.

Thats Green Ranger tweezing with me :D

Sherrie's Mom then drived Vanessa, Lydia and me to her house, while Sherrie, Joash and Yao took Sherrie's Aunt's car.

I loved Sherrie's house. Its beautiful. But I suggested her building a lift. Its so tiring climbing up that never-ending flight of stairs. I already struggle to climb up to the second storey of my own home. Imagine her having to climb 3 storeys high. And imagine Big Uncle having to climb up 4 storey high of stairs. Bah. We then started playing this game which tested us on how fast our reactions. It works like Snap. When the cards are the same we have to call out the name of the player who has the same cards as you. And to make it harder we didn't play with our own names. We played with MRT stations and even vegetable names. I sucked at the game. I'd start panicking and never recover from panicking. There's this trend we all noticed. When it comes to the girls, we scream and take a long time to answer. We'd just panick and go ahh, before calling our the name. The guys would like, pause and almost immediately shout like, Tiong Bahru or something. I guess thats just what makes guys guys and girls, girls.

Then I went around with Sherrie's cam and took pictures with all of them while they were playing cards cause I had no idea how the game works.

Thats Sherrie.

And Lydia.

This's Joash.

We practically lost our voices after that. Especially Sherrie. We played like nuts. We ate and played and Vanessa painted my nails pink! She even painted Lydia's toenails. She's crazy over painting nails. She painted Yao's middle finger as well. Lol.

My favourite Nehhhhzz. Lol (:

We had dinner and a few drops of wine each. But I only took a sip and I gave the rest to Lydia actually, but. Joash then dared her to play scissors paper stone with him and loser gets to drink or something. And Joash lost, I think, so he took the little bit of wine left. Lol. But Yao gave Lyd his. Lol. We also sang man birthday songs for Sherrie's Grandpa whose birthday was round the corner and then we continued by singing so many songs and even Happy Father's Day song in which many of us kept quiet after the first line cause it sounded weird and all of a sudden everyone fell silent and so? Typical Yao broke the silence by singing just one line. Merry Christmas to you. Bah.

We took this after dinner together with the adults.
There's Joash, Yao, Sherrie's aunt, Sherrie's Mom, Sherrie, Lydia, Vanessa and me :D

And the rest of the pictures taken during dinner.

And while we were playing the hand game through the glass table.

We cam-whored the whole time and we came took this picture by setting the cam on timer and it took us awhile before the picture was alright because we were trying to fit everyone in.

Its Love, with a heart (:

Yao, Joash, and Vanessa then stayed over while Lydia and me went home. I swear we're the closest group of tuition friends ever. But we'll meet up again after O's definitely.

.

Today was great. I had a great time. I swear (:

FOB-The Take Over, The Breaks Over

Baby, seasons change but people don't.
And I'll always be waiting in the back room.
I'm boring but overcompensate with
Headlines and flash, flash, flash photography.

But don't pretend you ever forgot about me.
Don't pretend you ever forgot about me.

Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?
Style your wake for fashion magazines.
Widow or a divorcee?
Don't pretend, d-d-d-don't pretend.

We don't fight fair.
We don't fight fair.

They say your head can be a prison.
Then these are just conjugal visits.
People will dissect us till
This doesn't mean a thing anymore.

Don't pretend you ever forgot about me.
Don't pretend you ever forgot about me.

Wouldn't you rather be a widow than a divorcee?
Style your wake for fashion magazines, ohhh.
Widow or a divorcee?
Don't pretend, d-d-d-don't pretend.

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We're dropped and well concealed in secret places, woah.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We're dropped and well concealed in secret places
We don't fight fair.
We don't fight fair.
We don't fight fair.
We don't fight fair.
We don't fight fair.

We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We're dropped and well concealed in secret places, woah.
We do it in the dark with smiles on our faces.
We're dropped and well concealed in secret places.
We don't fight fair.
With smiles on our faces.
We're dropped and well concealed in secret places.
We don't fight fair.

Don't pretend you ever forgot about me.
We don't fight fair.
Don't pretend you ever forgot about me.
We don't fight fair.

Dont pretend you ever forgot about me.
